Rfv-sense "Of or pertaining to the urinary bladder or gall bladder (in compounds).", currently listed as noun. Of the three compounds given as usexes, two already have etymology sections saying they are in fact using the prefix cyst(o)- and the other one also looks like it is probably the prefix. - -sche (discuss) 03:10, 1 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

I suspect this was added by someone in good faith who simply didnt know that we would consider cyst- as in cystitis to be a separate word from the standalone cyst. An easy mistake to make for someone not well versed in how dictionaries usually organize things. Soap 11:43, 2 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
